Schedule 33: Default fractions of foreign superannuation withdrawals
You could also call this:
“How much of your overseas pension is taxable when you take it out”
This table shows how much of your foreign superannuation withdrawal is taxable based on how long you’ve had it. The table has two columns: one for the schedule year and one for the schedule year fraction.
The schedule year goes from 1 to 26 or more, and the schedule year fraction is shown as a percentage. For example, in year 1, only 4.76% of your withdrawal is taxable. This percentage increases each year.
By year 26 or more, 100% of your withdrawal is taxable. This means that the longer you’ve had your foreign superannuation, the more of it will be taxed when you withdraw it.
